10 Colorectal Cancer Symptoms
Symptom #4: Weight Loss
Weight loss or weight gain is basically down to how many calories we absorb and how many we burn off. If we absorb fewer calories than we burn then we will begin to use up our fat reserves and vice versa. Colorectal cancer can not only reduce the number of calories that we are able to absorb, but it can also increase the number of calories we use.
With this in mind, it is not uncommon for people with colorectal cancer to experience sudden and unplanned weight loss. Such sudden weight loss is never good for the body and the patient is advised to take on whatever nutrition they can.
